10 STRANGE Requirements To Work As A Flight Attendant

1. Single Ladies Qatar Airways requires female flight attendants to remain single for the first 5 years of employment. If they intend to get married during this period they must ask the airline for permission to do so first.

2. Invisible Ink British Airways won't allow their attendants to have any visible tattoos or to cover visible tattoos with makeup, they also don't allow any visible piercings on any part of the body other than the ears.

3. Survival Skills T.A.M Airways requires attendants to undergo grueling survival training in the Amazon jungle so that they know how to survive if the plane were to crash land there. They are taught how to gather wreckage, signal for help and build a shelter.

4. Bling Restrictions United Airlines only allows flight attendants to wear a total of four rings with no more than 2 rings on each hand. British Airways only allows attendants to wear discrete gold or silver watches with either a leather or metal strap.

5. Weight Problem. Flight attendants mustn't be overweight, the majority are required to have a body mass index between 19 and 24.9. Air India made 600 overweight employees undergo a strict diet and exercise plan in order to regain their jobs, the 130 that failed to reach the weight goal were declared unfit to continue with their jobs as flight attendants.

6. Dental Customs. Most Airlines want their attendants to have friendly and clean smiles so attendants are required to have a full row of clean teeth without gaps or missing teeth and are encouraged to use breath fresheners and mints. All retainers must be the same color as the attendant's gums or transparent and braces must either be clear or silver.

7. Altitude. Emirates airlines require its attendants to be able to reach a minimum height of 212cm whilst standing on tiptoes. The majority of other Airlines require their attendants to be between 1.58 and 1.88 meters tall, basically, tall enough to be able to reach and use the overhead lockers but not so tall that they will have more difficulty moving around.

8. Hairways. British Airways says male attendants can't have long hair and must be clean-shaven with no facial hair and all attendants must have natural-looking hair color. Female attendants on other Airlines are restricted to 7cm of hair volume and mohawks, dreadlocks, and cornrow braids are banned.

9. Company Image. Emirates Airlines has its own two-week training program where one full day is focused solely on the attendant's image, they are told exactly how much foundation to apply and how to pick the right shade of red lipstick.
